Arroyo School # 1980 Pictures

The attached picture is of Arroyo School as per my father Lloyd Aitkin, who has now passed away.
Arroyo School was south of Beverly, SK. Just how far I am not sure.
The family farm was at the top of the hill south of Beverly and dad said even though they were closer to Beverly, they had to go to Arroyo which was south of the farm.
About a month ago I forwarded a picture of Arroyo School that my father had. From the history book that dad had, "Treasured Memories - Yellow Lake and District", was the same picture submitted to the book also. There, just before our family history was the same picture with the people identified.Teacher: Mrs Elsie KnightBack Row: Ed McPhail, George Aitkin, Norman Perry, Lloyd Aitkin, Bill Aitkin and Fred Hoff in middle.Second Row: Iva Hoff, Edna Schultz, Marjorie Aitkin, Dorothy Schultz.Front Row: Thelma McPhail, Ruth Hoff, Ardith Park, Mayme Hoff and Margie Perry.

The previous page identifies Mrs Knight as having taught there 1925-26-27.
